Continence and defecation are two essential functions in humans. Any alteration resulting in anal incontinence and/or constipation can severely impair the patient's quality of life. This study analyzes the anatomical structures and physiologic mechanisms accepted as factors involved in the correct development of both functions, while recognizing that there are still many unclear issues within this complex and sometimes paradoxical structure/function of the human body.
控尿和排便功能是人类两项基本功能。任何导致肛门失禁和/或便秘的改变都会严重损害患者的生活质量。本研究分析了被认为是这两项功能正常发育相关因素的解剖结构和生理机制，同时认识到在人体这一复杂且有时自相矛盾的结构/功能中仍存在许多不明问题。
